In vivo, the enzyme inhibition in plasma, mesenteric and brain vessels measured by enzyme kinetic and radioligand binding assay were well correlated, and there was a similar degree of inhibition between different vessels and tissues measured by in vitro autoradiography.

Alterations in the systemic renin-angiotensin system and an increased vascular sensitivity for its components have been observed in diabetes mellitus and hypertension, and whether changes occur also in the pancreatic islet renIn-angiotsin system during these conditions remains unknown.
Angiotensin Receptor Subtypes and Cerebral Blood Flow
- Biology, Medicine
- 1994
The brain receives approximately 15% of the cardiac output to maintain a blood flow rate of around 50 ml/100 g tissue per min, which means cerebral blood flow can be maintained even if one of the vascular territories fails.

The findings suggest that endogenous release of angiotensin II contributes to the increase in CBF during hypoxia, and that hypercapnia increased CBF similarly in the absence and presence of saralasin.

Of particular interest in this context are the recent epidemiological data showing that administration of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors appears to be protective against the development of diabetes in hypertensive patients.

The results indicate that the elevation of vascular ACE activity may play an important role in the maintenance of high blood pressure and may result in hypotension in response to ACE inhibitors in the chronic stage of 1-K,1C hypertension.
